Daily diet post op -- What is a normal day?



Recommended Posts

I bought all the necessary items to eat during this stage but I am confused as to how much I should be eating. Is it too much? Is it too little? I am one week post op now. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Hey, what are your nuts instructions? I was on soft food the 2nd week which is pretty much anything you can mush with a fork from what I understand. eggs, tilapia...yada yada. I'm not eating that yet. I'm still on liquids like runny canned chicken mixed with yogurt and grits.

What is your post surgical diet plan?

And you should be eating a max of 1 ounce an hour. According to MY plan.

I measured so if they wanted me to have a 1/4 a cup that is what i had. Ate slow and did fine. Still like to measure my food and I use small plates so that it looks like i have more food.

I purchased a bunch of Rubbermaid 3 and 4 oz containers and that is what I eat my lunch out of at work. So if I make chili and brig to work I bring in a big container and I measure into the 4 oz. I also purchased a really cute appetizer bowl too that is a little over 4 oz so I eat out of that as well. Work wise, if we go out as a team I end up just getting a side dish and taking most home and having a cut of meat from my friend as she is a body builder well cross fit girl so she eats a lot of lean meat and Keats asks for extra veggies and I take a piece of her meat am se eats the rest if my side. Same when I go out with my husband and kids. Goo luck.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
